The document discusses European Defence Agency (EDA) activities related to SATCOM (satellite communications). It outlines EDA's role in space projects in Europe and describes an existing European SATCOM Procurement Cell project that pools commercial SATCOM capacity for member states. It also proposes ideas for future EDA projects like ETISC (European Tactical Interim SATCOM Capability) and SECTELSAT (MILSATCOM Next Generation) to address SATCOM needs. EDA could help define requirements and conduct studies for these potential multinational SATCOM collaboration projects.
